A desperate woman. A cold billionaire. A marriage contract that could destroy them both. When struggling designer Aria Cole signs a one-year marriage deal with ruthless tycoon Victor Hale to save her family from ruin, she expects rules, distance, and emotional silence. She does not expect jealousy, power wars, hidden enemies — or a husband who watches her like a possession he refuses to lose. Victor Hale doesn’t believe in love. He believes in control. But the wife he married for convenience is becoming his greatest weakness — and someone is already trying to remove her from the board. The contract says no feelings. The danger says otherwise.
